If you want to learn How To Draw Wall Murals then keep on reading. Wall Murals make just about any room come alive especially Home Game Rooms and Children's Rooms. They're actually pretty easy to draw and paint so don't shy away from adding a wall mural to your room. Tackle the project head on and when you're finished you won't believe how great it looks even if it's your first time drawing one.

Drawing a wall mural is basically like painting by number and everyone knows even young kids can paint by number.

One of the easiest ways to add wall murals to your home is with an overhead projector. So what you'll first need is an outline sketch of the mural you want to draw. You can find sketches or pictures of murals you want to draw just about anywhere. For example from computer graphic software, coloring books, magazines and so on.

The key to making a good mural this way is your tracing ability. You need to find the outline you like and then trace it onto a transparency sheet with special transparency markers. The reason you do this is so that with the use of an overhead projector your traced picture will show up on the wall.

So you've traced your picture onto a transparency sheet and you now have it on the projector shining your trace onto your wall. This time you need to trace that same picture onto your wall with a pencil. Just try to do this in one step otherwise you'll have to line up the drawing again placing the projector in exactly the same location. And remember you can make the picture on your wall as large or as small as you'd like depending on the distance the overhead projector is from the wall.

If you don't have access to an overhead projector don't worry, most office supply stores have them to rent or buy and sometimes a library may have old ones to borrow or sell so it's a good idea to inquire with them.

PAINT TO USE - Use acrylic paint to color in your wall mural as it looks the best. Although it's recommended you may have to go over your paint job more than once to get your desired look. It is ok to use regular wall paint if you're doing a "large" mural but for details stick to the acrylics.

Your first try may not come out like a Picasso but don't worry most of your family and friends won't even know you did it yourself. You can always redo your murals easily and after you've done a few you'll wonder why you've never added one before.
